When using merge-tree often within a repository[^1], it is possible to generate a relatively large number of loose objects, which can result in degraded performance, and inode exhaustion in extreme cases. Building on the functionality introduced in previous commits, the bulk-checkin machinery now has support to write arbitrary blob and tree objects which are small enough to be held in-core. We can use this to write any blob/tree objects generated by ORT into a separate pack instead of writing them out individually as loose. This functionality is gated behind a new `--write-pack` option to `merge-tree` that works with the (non-deprecated) `--write-tree` mode. The implementation is relatively straightforward. There are two spots within the ORT mechanism where we call `write_object_file()`, one for content differences within blobs, and another to assemble any new trees necessary to construct the merge. In each of those locations, conditionally replace calls to `write_object_file()` with `index_blob_bulk_checkin_incore()` or `index_tree_bulk_checkin_incore()` depending on which kind of object we are writing. The only remaining task is to begin and end the transaction necessary to initialize the bulk-checkin machinery, and move any new pack(s) it created into the main object store. [^1]: Such is the case at GitHub, where we run presumptive "test merges" on open pull requests to see whether or not we can light up the merge button green depending on whether or not the presumptive merge was conflicted. This is done in response to a number of user-initiated events, including viewing an open pull request whose last test merge is stale with respect to the current base and tip of the pull request. As a result, merge-tree can be run very frequently on large, active repositories.
